DSSSB exam: Students were given Political Science paper instead of Sanskrit paper

During the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) exam some of the students, at one examination centers, received political science question paper while they had appeared for the Sanskrit exam. When these students appeared for the re-test, the Sanskrit question paper remained the same as the previous one leading to the allegations that these students already knew the question paper. The exam was held to recruit post-graduate teachers (PGT) in Delhi government schools. Some candidates said that they had filed a complaint regarding the same but no action has been taken by the authorities yet. The incident took place at a government school in northeast Delhiʼs Jaffrabad. Sunil Shastri, a guest teacher who took the exam, said, “The exam was supposed to begin at 10.30 am. But at the Jaffrabad center, question papers were distributed at different timings in different classrooms. In some cases, Sanskrit candidates were given the political science paper. When we complained, officials from the DSSSB and police came to the school and said a re-test would be held. But by then, those who got the Sanskrit paper had discussed the questions.” Another teacher, who did not wish to be named said “The re-exam began at 1.40 pm, but the paper was the same as the one in the morning. When some of us protested and said we won’t take the exam, officials confined us in the classroom.” Last year, a CBI probe was called to check the alleged DSSSB exam leak to recruit the teachers for primary classes and 18 people were arrested related to the matter.
